Well I think what your asking for is a straight 2.4.x checking which
is then tagged as such?
Then a simple cvs diff -r linux.X would be able to generate an XFS
patch.
Problem with implementing this is that ptools does not support
branching, rather
it uses a concept of LOD "line of development" which is actually a
complete copy of a
repository. While ptools lod's will give diffs the same way cvs branches
will, translating
this cvs would be very difficult.
I could tag the tree just after the merge checkins, this wouldn't be as
useful as
a pure linux branch but it would give symbolic points in time.
Let me go find exactly when the 244 merge went in and I'll tag the tree
at that time.
